18 months old!

I took Sadie to get her 18 month photos taken today; she was a little ham as always!

Melissa's Goodbye Party

Our playgroup had a final goodbye party for our friend Melissa & her daughter Molly the week before they left at Chris's house, here are some of the best shots!

Sadie, waiting for Molly to arrive.

Chowing down on some mac & cheese.

How adorable are Olivia's pigtails!

Molly expressing some concerns about the long, cross-country flight. Sadie listening intently.

Some of our best attempts at a group shot.

Memorial Day

In an attempt to catch up with all that has been going on here for the past month, I'll start small and just go a day at a time! We had a nice Memorial Day Picnic at Hale Park complete with both sets of grandparents, Katie & Miguel, and Melissa & Molly.

Sadie feels the need to inspect every child's belly button thoroughly.

Just a Note...

Just a note to all those 2 people who follow our blog... ;) Camera is broken, and I haven't figured out how to upload pictures taken with the video camera yet! So once we get that fixed, we'll be back to posting!

For now though, we bid our good friends Melissa, John, Molly, and "warrior" Doyle bon voyage as they head off to British Columbia next week. We will miss you guys! Looking forward to many skype conversations where the girls can see each other on the computer :)

These are a few of my favorite things...

Here are some shots of Sadie doing some of her favorite things- playing with her friend at the beach, taking a ride in Nana's walker, and helping Dadda drive!

Bathing Beauties

Sadie and her cousin Cali took their first (of many, I'm sure) bath together! Cali enjoyed all of Sadie's bath toys, while Sadie was more interested in finding Cali's belly button....

Swinging

A Day At The Beach

...and that is exactly what today was! Sadie and I spent our first morning of the season at the beach today while Sean worked on painting the exterior of the house. Sadie had a blast, and loved burying her feet in the sand. Needless to say, the hot weather and salty air totally wiped her out, and she was asleep before we even pulled out of the parking lot.

Morning at the Park

Sadie and I enjoyed a nice morning at the park together, and surprisingly she kept her shades on the whole time!

Easter

Sadie has enjoyed quite a few Easter egg hunts, Easter bunny spottings, and eggs this Easter season. Here are some photos from Easter 2009:

Sadie enjoyed her first Easter Egg Hunt at the park this past weekend, but was a bit unsure of the Easter Bunny...

Small Spaces

Unfortunately Sadie had an accident on Monday afternoon while going down the slide with her Mamma and injured her foot. She wasn't able to put any weight on it, so we brought her in for x-rays, and turns out the poor little girl has a broken growth plate! The doctor gave us a choice of whether or not to cast it, saying that either way she would be uncomfortable- either the cast would be uncomfortable or her foot would be hurting, so we decided not to cast it and to re-asses in a few days. We were told the not wearing a cast wouldn't be detrimental to the healing process. So that's that. She doesn't seem to be in any pain, unless she tries to stand or walk on it. She's been a real trooper, and it certainly hasn't stopped her from crawling about the house and searching for small spaces to maneuver into.
